It is such typical hype as this that is an argument against Linux. As a long time Windows "power user" who has tried every major and some minor Linux distros (i just booted up the latest Remix beta on a another PC to see if i can run an app on it), i can attest that the above statement is absurd, and indicates the writer is ignorant of Windows 10. It is not much of a learning curve at all to go from W/7 which most W/8 users would be familiar with, and with the simple addition of Classic Shell Windows 8 or 8.1 is little different from Vista or Win 7.
In contrast, switching to any Linux distro from Windows is a far greater learning curve unless you just want to surf the Internet.
Which is probably illegal. But Windows 10 also stopped providing DVD support.
Thanks, I must’ve missed that. I run 15.04 in a VM on my AMD FX-8350 with a GeForce GTX 970. Will have to pop in an SSD and install 15.04 to see how well it works, thanks.
“I stopped using Ubuntu when they started that crappy Unity interface. Its unusable.”
I use the Mate desktop, whether I’m installing Mint or Ubuntu.
